Default Car headlights for in pond use ?

I was waiting for someone who had done this to reply... but

I am going to start with plain old sealed beam headlights
like all cars used form about 1950-1980. Should be under
$5 a light. For wire I am going to use the stuff intended for
low voltage outdoor lighting. I will solder the wire to the lights
and coat the joint with 100% silicone seal. To power the lights
I will use a low voltage lighting transformer. I think another
poster said they were using 20W per light but I will play around
to see what works best.

Find some way to hold/mount the lights in the pond and you are
done.

And for the lawyers out there.....
As always plug the transformer into a GFI protected outlet.

If anyone has a better idea speak up.
